Haven’t we learned yet? Cruelty, cruelty is why and cruelty is the point.
Because most bosses and managers hate people whatever the cost.
People are nasty, they get ill, get mad when you extort them and go on strikes.
They want a fully automated money machine but don’t understand that the people they are sacking are the ones doing the buying.
See, the trick is to automate your workforce. Your customers come from the other guy’s workforce so you keep making money. AI can’t do your job, right?
Many managers and owners are large children with poor emotional regulation.
I think the answer is : nobody is being replaced, and certainly not by AI. These companies have been over-hiring for decades now, for a variety of reasons, and layoffs before quarterly reports are nice because they pad the bottom line without having to increase revenue. “Ai layoff” is a nice way to phrase “economic restructuring” without spooking the investors. Hell if you’re lucky it might even get you a bump on the stock market.
I’ve been in the industry for a few years now and can guarantee you there are not enough systems deployed to replace workers in any significant numbers, and those that exist are far from good enough.

Land-rush purchasing, though.
I’m not sure what that means ?
simple. ai is more expensive now … but won’t be in a few years. also ai won’t form unions and will work overtime, so people with more money than they can spend in a lifetime can earn even more money to improve their social status … and build more data centers
I don’t think that’s true. Economies are a balance and what they’re pushing for is a gross imbalance. It can’t work and they’re either stupid af or trying to ruin everything.
Wont form unions? Those dipshits ceos are going to be so upset when they find out about vendor lockin and annual increases in fees.
